SQL Version Control

SQL Version Control

We know our SQL files must be placed under version control by now. Without version control, no automation, without automation, no Continuous Integration and without Continuous Integration, no Continuous Delivery.

But how do our SQL and PL/SQL objects get into version control in the first place?
What are the easiest ways?
And what are the pitfalls to avoid when setting up version control for your database application?

This talk uses examples and database features to show how simple version control can be set up for database applications and what needs to be considered to create ideal conditions for future automation.
